OCR to use

What is the best OCR software for the purpose of converting paper books to e-books? I have just tried by new OpticBook 3600 scanner to scan a book and now I'd like to convert the images to text. I have tried the demo version of Abbyy FineReader 9 and was quite amazed at its accuracy, but I couldn't find a way to remove page headers (page number, book title, author) short of deleting them from each page manually. What software do you use?
